Yes Jenn, KSC going to enbloc. Feel kinda sad as that place holds fond memories for me. My Ah Kong and Ah Ma used to bring me there when I was toddler age. Still remember going to Emporium departmental store. Was so fascinated with the make-up and clothes for grownups. KSC was like a People's Park in the East, so the shopping centre sold fabric and there were many tailor shops. My grandma used to buy cloth and then send to tailor to custom make clothes for herself.

Actually KSC has nothing much to offer now - no shopping. Shops are mostly maid agencies and those photocopy shops.Most shoppers prefer to go to Parkway.

Still there are other gems that can be found there. I try to create memories with my girls and we enjoy eating at the chicken rice stall and the local dessert shop. Sometimes, if my schedule permits, I spend some ME time at the dessert shop eating my favourite, "black rice with coconut milk and durian". Utterly sinful but worth the calories. Haha

Oh, i hv yet to try the eateries opp Bukit Indah...but i read a good review of Daorae Korean BBQ...n now yr verdict...
Everytime, we would hv our dinner at the seafood restuarant near the Causeway...juz before driving back ...since yr hubby loves crabs...their seafood there is fresh n cheap...also highly recommend to try their signature fried "San Low" Vermicelli...as what they called...one of the best fried bee hoon i ever tried...( a tad of oily though but really yummy!!)...

Yap, there is a MeiXin stall at the mooncake fair in Aeon Bt Indah. We walked around, then chanced upon the few stalls. I find the fair not as organised as those in Sg whereby all the stalls are found in an atrium. Maybe Aeon is too big, so there are a few stalls at this place, at that place. Really need to walk around to find the stalls.

Today was my second visit at this mall, so I am unable to give specific whereabout of the MeiXin stall, paiseh.

As for the crabs, I seriously doubt hubby will go, he always says not very safe to go here or there.

He is very kind to bring me to Aeon today

Ah i c...thanks...Yes, that shopping mall is really too big...

Sounds familiar to me as i also often hear those words fr my hub " dont go here or dont go there, not very safe "...
Since that causeway restaurant is very near to the causeway, often packed with Singaporeans...
But yes, hv to be more vigilant when gets across the causeway...some SC there i will avoid...

Augmum,

The seafood eating place is near the Woodlands causeway? Not Tuas 2nd Link right?

Hubby asked me to ask.

I told him you mentioned Causeway, so should be the one near Woodlands, not Tuas. But he says to confirm

Yes Jen, ...correct..i was referring to woodlands causeway...
The seafood restaurant is located within the Duty Free Zone...opp of Berjaya Waterfront hotel...

Actually, i am not sure of the restaurant name...didnt pay attention to it...so i went to google for it.. it is called Tai Son restaurant..I could recogise the setting of the restaurant...
Apparently, there is another restaurant named "San low" restuarant which also serves their signature dish of fried vermicelli...which i mentioned in my previous post...hence, i reckon this dish of fried vermicelli ( it is actually fried bee hoon, not "dong fen" ... pressed fried till its surface is fragranced n soaked with wok hei) is also a signature dish for other seafood restaurants there...But the place i was referring to is NOT "San low" restaurant"...

More abt this restaurant...
They hv both the outdoor seating n the air- con seating...we prefer the outdoor seating as there was Live singing ( dunno if they still hv it now) but the outdoor area was rather dim...

Oh, pls avoid going there on weekends...it will be damn packed with pple.. Longgg waiting time...
